Earlier in the day, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that he spoke to US President Donald Trump.

In a post on X, he said, "Earlier today, I spoke with our friend President Trump. President Trump believes there is an opportunity to leverage the tremendous achievements we have attained with the U.S. military to realise the war objectives in the agreement--an agreement that will safeguard our vital interests."

He added, "At the same time, we continue to strike both in Iran and in Lebanon. We are crushing the missile program and the nuclear program, and continuing to inflict severe blows on Hezbollah. Just days ago, we eliminated two more nuclear scientists--and the hand is still outstretched. We will safeguard our vital interests in any scenario."

Meanwhile, cautious relief has swept through financial markets after Trump said the US talked with Iran about a possible end to their war. Oil prices eased, and stock prices rose on Wall Street following severe losses taken elsewhere in the world before Trump's announcement, as per Al Jazeera.

The price for a barrel of Brent crude fell 10.9 per cent to settle at USD 99.94, down from nearly USD 120 at one point last week. The S&P 500 climbed 1.1 per cent for its best day since the war began, as per Al Jazeera.
